Genoa coach Gian Piero Gasperini says he been impressed with recent signing Maxime Lestienne and the work the Rossoblu have done in the summer transfer market.

The 22-year-old Belgian was signed on-loan from Qatar side Al-Arabi after leaving Club Brugge in the summer and Gasperini is hoping for big things from the youngster.

“He has impressed me very much, he has all the skills to do well at Genoa,” Gasperini told reporters at the press conference before Sunday’s game against away to Fiorentina.

“I am happy with the work the club has done during the transfer window and  I spoke with the president [Enrico Preziosi] and he is happy with the atmosphere that is been created.

Genoa will be hoping to get back on track after the 2-1 defeat on the opening day at home to Napoli.
